1991 Fleer – Henry Blanco

Henry has had a very nice career as a backup catcher. For years he was the personal catcher for Greg Maddux. He is now the backup catcher for the Diamondbacks.

I took this picture as Henry was waiting near the cage during batting practice. Henry was an easy target to take pictures of because he kept looking into the crowd. I don’t know if he was looking for someone in particular or just scanning for female fans. Either way he helped me get a couple of pictures of him by actual turning around.

Nice card, I didn’t even realize he played for Arizona now. Got to love that 1991 Fleer, all that ugly yellow made kind of a classic set in my opinion. Kudos on the pic too, I know how tough it can be to get a nice picture from the stands.
